### 4/5 — Tout va bien, sauf…

*2024-07-11, version 2022.08.0800*

… que je reçois les notifications en double, en triple, et même en quadruple. Je ne sais pas si je suis la seule??

### 4/5 — The app is good but…

*2021-09-08, version 2019.12.0400*

But maybe there is still room for improvements. Like it’s kinda hard to navigate through it and it’s harder to communicate with others.

### 4/5 — A bit hard to use, but essential

*2021-08-24, version 2019.12.0400*

The interface can be hard to get used to at first, but it is an indispensable tool for any McGill student.

It is convenient for notifications, McGill-related news, and other useful information.

### 2/5 — Really messy

*2018-11-29, version 2018.3.021*

The interface could be improved, also the mycourses sync is really bad, it never syncs the correct ammount of courses; this feature doesn’t work properly and this problem is here from a long time.

### 2/5 — h

*2018-06-14, version 2018.1.082*

The interface lacks intuitivity.

### 4/5 — Remember credentials

*2018-01-10, version 7.999*

It would be great if I don’t have to input my login/password every time I access my curses

### 4/5 — Lovely app.

*2017-11-16, version 7.989*

Very helpful to seek and get information.

### 2/5 — ok at best

*2017-10-14, version 7.97*

My courses won't sync to this app which makes it pretty useless. I reached out to the app's tech support, they said they'd look into it but never got back to me.

### 3/5 — Life just got simpler but needs some more worm

*2017-09-21, version 7.94*

Overall it is  definitely helpful and useful; however, there are various bugs that need to be fixed. I.e. I couldn't select one class to build my schedule, it would select a various and disallowed me to Unselect. Also, if ever this comment gets read by the developers it would be just ideal if our email and password could be saved instead of just writing it every time to log in, and perhaps enable the fingerprint option!!!! 

Thanks anyways, i'm still enjoying my McGill app!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Deeecent

*2017-09-21, version 7.94*

Pretty easily used app. Booklist doesn't work. Schedule could be more user friendly. Please don't ask me to review again app monsters!

### 5/5 — Very easy and practical 😊

*2017-09-18, version 7.94*

This app saved my life to get into the buildings on time and know when and where were my classes!

### 2/5 — Logs me out

*2017-09-13, version 7.76*

I always have to login every time I open it. Plus once in it asks me again to log in to open "my courses"

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2025-09-04, version 2022.08.0800*

This app is damn near useless. I shouldn’t have to log in every time I open it, and it’s faster to find important information from a web browser.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2024-09-03, version 2022.08.0800*

Works half the time...  2 years without an update, might as well call it absolete!

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2023-04-22, version 2022.08.0800*

Useless and impossible to open because of this stupid message : « Emergency McGill alert test ..»

### 1/5 — Useless

*2020-09-02, version 2019.12.0400*

Can’t even sync my courses. No way of being notified of my courses’ content and the teachers’ announcement through the app. I have to go online.

### 1/5 — Cannot log on

*2020-05-28, version 2019.12.0400*

Every time I open the app it tells me to log in with the mcgill email, which I do, and it just brings me to a blank page. I don’t know how I can make it log in for me.

### 1/5 — New update sucks

*2020-02-18, version 2019.12.0400*

The new update is garbage. I can’t even sign in anymore

### 1/5 — Awful

*2019-09-03, version 2018.3.022*

The app will not sync your courses, and provides no option to input them manually. In the area to sync your student record you are prompted to sign into Minerva and then nothing happens. It does not remember your login credentials, forcing you to sign in to multiple different sections of the app every time you use it. The campus map section only has buildings listed that begin with letters A-E, rendering it useless for navigation for people unfamiliar with the campus. As the app is created through a third party, there is no technical support available through the university.

### 1/5 — Basically useless

*2019-01-18, version 2018.3.022*

It looks good, but won’t sync my semester’s courses. It’s main attribute (which is, notifying you about stuff related to the classes you are taking) is therefore rendered useless.

### 1/5 — Needs a few dozen tweaks

*2017-09-03, version 7.76*

The app is not well structured, multiple functions are in dire need of updates.

### 1/5 — Keeps Crashing

*2015-08-26, version 6.51*

FIX IT. UPGRADE!!!

*2023-10-16, version 2022.08.0800*

Easy to use and gives me all the info I need! What more could I ask for?

### 5/5 — Way easier than the website

*2023-06-05, version 2022.08.0800*

This is way way way easier to use than the McGill website. I’ve only used it for a little while and it’s already very useful! I suggest this for people who find the website a bit confusing.
